PWM CONTROL, PWM/PFM SWITCHING CONTROL
STEP-DOWN SWITCHING REGULATOR CONTROLLERS
S-8520/8521 Series
The S-8520/8521 Series consists of CMOS step-down
switching regulator-controllers with PWM control (S-8520
Series) and PWM/PFM switching control (S-8521 Series).
These devices contain a reference voltage source,
oscillation circuit, error amplifier, and other components.
The S-8520 Series provides low-ripple power, high-
efficiency, and excellent transient characteristics thanks to
a PWM control circuit capable of varying the duty ratio
linearly from 0 % up to 100 %. The series also contains
an error amplifier circuit as well as a soft-start circuit that
prevents overshoot at startup.
The S-8521 Series works with either PWM control or PFM
control, and can switch from one to the other. It normally
operates using PWM control with a duty ratio of 25 % to
100 %, but under a light load, it automatically switches to
PFM control with a duty ratio of 25 %. This series
ensures high efficiency over a wide range of conditions,
from standby mode to operation of peripheral equipment.
With the addition of an external Pch power MOS FET or
PNP transistor, a coil, capacitors, and a diode connected
externally, these ICs can function as step-down switching
regulators. They serve as ideal power supply units for
portable devices when coupled with the SOT-23-5 small
package, providing such outstanding features as low
current consumption.
Since this series can
accommodate an input voltage of up to 16 V, it is also
ideal when operating via an AC adapter.
